| 2.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 2/5 | 12/20 | May 28, 2009 Sample at Rozi’s Wine House Stone Brewing Co. Event. First smell was really strange - like opening the dishwasher right after it’s done. Perhaps that was just some supped up lemon/pine combinations in the beer. A bit bitter with a light copper appearance and off-white head. livelaughlovep (96), Lakewood, Ohio, USA

| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 18/20 | May 26, 2009 A round and nutty malt nose balances apricots and citrusy hop spice. Excellent flavor, very well balanced. The malt relaxes the senses, the hop keeps everything held together. Wonderful finish, with a malt resonance and slightly bitter end. The picture of session balance and drinkabilty. One of the best beers the brewery makes. yobdoog (1431), Woodridge NY, New York, USA
